Time to take stock...

Just watched the fund raising show by Mediacorp... for the peops in China...who lost their loved ones in the 512 earthquake. Well.... firstly.... kudos to media corp... and all artises who participated in this program. For a program of this scale to take flight in a matter of two weeks or less... it hard work.

I supposed... as long as there is the will the help...nothing is impossible. And, this is as little as we can do... to help the people in need. Really... no amount of money can take away the pain of the many who are left all alone... with their loved ones all perishing from this natural disaster. The pictures you see.... and the stories the frontliners tell on national TV.... has tugged on many's heartstrings.... including mine.

It is also time for us... the more fortunate ones... to be living in an area free from natural disaster to take stock of what we have in out lives. We have very often complained of the little things that are happening in our lives... like not wanting to go to work.... not knowing where to go for our next holiday.... whether or not to buy that coach bag etc.... These are all material stuff. Things we can definitely do without. This is a time to be thankful for what we have, show our loved ones how much they mean to us. It is time to be grateful... we have a job to go to.... becoz many people out there are not as lucky.

Do your bit... no matter how little.... it will make a difference in another person's life. Remember.... do good deeds...
